Sam wilson captain america suit toy8/9/2023 ![]() It's a much better way of honoring Evans' character than bringing him back, allowing Captain America: New World Order to focus on Sam Wilson as he continues Steve Rogers' legacy with nothing to distract from Sam's story.I’ll avoid talking about the specific story content details of the series finale of “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” itself here, but obviously the cat (or I guess the bird?) is out of the bag regarding the new Captain America who debuts at the end of the Disney+ show: Sam Wilson.Ī few early photos of this action figure actually managed to slip out earlier this month, but my eyes quickly darted away and my mind blanked that spoiler content from my mind, so let’s take a look at this 7” action figure with fresh eyes…Īs expected this Marvel Select Sam Wilson Captain America is a Shop Disney (Disney Store) exclusive. However, since Sam is getting a new Captain America costume in New World Order, it makes sense to use it as a way to honor Steve Rogers' legacy while still putting a new spin on it. Whatever the reason for Sam to ditch the white costume, it's a shame considering it was much closer to the character's costume in the comics - and was tied to his journey in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Since it's unknown why Sam gets this new Captain America costume, it's impossible to know how intentional that is, but the suit change will no doubt be addressed in New World Order. That said, the costume's design does appear to be an homage to the many suits worn by Steve Rogers as it much more closely resembles the stealth suit and the Avengers: Age of Ultron suit. ![]() Aside from the color scheme, it also has shoulder plates and spots for his wings, so it's clearly a new suit. Sam Wilson's blue Captain America suit isn't an exact replica of one worn by Steve Rogers - it's neither the stealth suit nor the red, white and blue suits worn by Steve in any of the Avengers movies.

Evans' Captain America held the title for more than a decade, and he's beloved by many - both in the MCU and in the real world - so any kind of return would be extremely exciting. If Evans' Steve Rogers were to return, even in a small cameo, it might distract too much from Sam Wilson, who is meant to be the focus of New World Order. As such, it's incredibly important for Marvel, the writers and the director on Captain America: New World Order to establish Sam Wilson's Captain America as a leading hero in his own right. He's set to be the first of the legacy characters to headline his own movie without an appearance from the character whose mantle he's taking over. Sam Wilson is the first true test of how well the MCU can pull off using its legacy characters as replacements for original members of the Avengers. This works as a way of visually passing the torch from Steve to Sam in Captain America 4.

In particular, it looks like the stealth suit Steve Rogers wore while working for SHIELD in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Sam still has shoulder pieces that look like attachments for his wings, but the new Captain America costume for New World Order looks a lot more like those worn by Steve Rogers. flag's red and white stripes on the abdomen, but the chest and shoulder area appear to be slimmer and more blue than white.
